Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB
Alexander should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a B.

The Bills spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Zy Alexander, the No. 109 name on the board, in pick No. 132.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Schwesinger reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 31st pick they get a disruptive interior force at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at pick 56 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Carson Schwesinger
A conviction pick on Carson Schwesinger at slot 62 that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
No edge and no loss on Jordan Phillips in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick132 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in the 132nd overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at Round 5, Pick 31 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
No drama and no debate, Chase Lundt went about where he belonged in pick No. 170. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool in No. 173 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick177 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens in No. 177 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick206 Rnd6 Maxen Hook
By-the-book stuff, Maxen Hook at slot 206 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
